Re: Jim Wells Retires
let's hope we don't make any empty promises to bring him back again like last time.

I believe it's health issues so I doubt that would happen.

Hate to see this. He's done a fine job with Bama BB. IMO it'll be hard to find someone to fill his shoes.

I think Mitch Gaspard will do a fine job.

We are fast on the draw with football but are very, very complacent with other sports, especially men's/women's basketball and baseball. All the former coaches stayed way past their burn out date.

The women's basketball team coulda been a contenda.

Re: Jim Wells Retires
Is it too early to label him as the Brett Favre of college baseball coaches?

Yes. He'd have to retire at least two more times just to tie.

Peace be with you Coach Wells, enjoy retirement; but by God it ain't sad to see you go. Good luck Coach Gaspard; give 'em hell and Roll Tide.
